Scouting the Dunkin' Dogs

After two wins against Southern Miss last week, Louisiana Tech is now 15-3 overall and 6-0 in C-USA action.

Scouting the UAB Blazers

UAB, the preseason favorite in C-USA, has lived up to expectations to this point during the 2021-2022 season.

The Blazers lone C-USA loss came at Rice 85-80 on January 8th.

Jordan Walker (16.9 ppg), Quan Jackson (11.2 ppg) and KJ Buffen (10.4 ppg) all average double-figures in scoring for Andy Kennedy's squad.

The Blazers are averaging 10.6 steals per game on the defensive end and will be looking to turn Tech turnovers into quick points on the other end throughout the contest Saturday.

The rebounding and turnover margins will be huge for UAB's chances of winning against Louisiana Tech.
